I just bought a Okuma Granite 30. I have it on a G1000 Lami ultralite. Have not wet the line yet, but have used my big Okuma spinning reel for sturgeon and not had any problems. The 30 is a nice size, holds 210 yards of 6 pound test. Gears are 5.0 to 1. The reel is very smooth. And cheap, I paid like 30 bucks. Otherwise go with what KOB said. Those are nice reels, but I'm VERY hard on my reels, so I hate shelling out 70 bucks to have it last only a year or two. Never had a reel other than a Browning last very long. If you can find one of those, it might be a good bet also.
